Join a Nationwide Research Effort To Create a Healthier Future

The All of Us Research Program at the National Institutes of Health is inviting more than a million people across the United States to help build one of the most diverse health databases of its kind. VCU has partnered with the NIH and All of Us to help patients at VCU Health contribute to that database. People who join will give information about their health, habits and where they live. By looking for patterns, researchers may learn more about what affects people’s health.

Summer Students Should Update Current Physical Location

All students enrolled in summer 2021 courses at VCU will receive an email from the dean of students in June requesting verification of physical location while taking courses. Federal Regulation 34 CFR 600.9(c)(2) requires that all institutions of higher education (including VCU) make a determination of the state or other place where students are physically located. The purpose of this federal regulation is to ensure that VCU is authorized to provide educational opportunities where enrolled students are located. Details, including an FAQ, are on the Current Physical Location website at the following URL.
